mathsurgery - Sequences, functions and graphs

All
• Count from any given number in whole-number and decimal steps, extending beyond zero when counting backwards; relate the numbers to their position on a number line (Y5)
• Represent and interpret sequences, patterns and relationships involving numbers and shapes (Y6)

Most

• Represent problems, making correct use of symbols, words, diagrams, tables and graphs
• Describe integer sequences; generate terms of a simple sequence, given a rule (e.g. finding a term from the previous term, finding a term given its position in the sequence)
• Generate sequences from patterns or practical contexts and describe the general term in simple cases

Some

• Try out and compare mathematical representations
• Generate terms of a linear sequence using term-to-term and position-to-term definitions of the sequence, on paper and using a spreadsheet or graphical calculator
• Use linear expressions to describe the nth term of a simple arithmetic sequence, justifying its form by referring to the activity or practical context from which it was generated
